swami vivekananda quotes 2

We must overcome difficulty by constant practice. We must learn that nothing can happen to us unless
we make ourselves susceptible to it.


Take up an idea, devote yourself to it, struggle on in patience, and the sun will rise for you.



Education is the manifestation of perfection present already in man


Strength is Life, Weakness is death


Condemn none: if you can stretch out a helping hand, do so. If you cannot, fold your hands, bless your
brothers, and let them go their own way.



The world is the great gymnasium where we come to make ourselves strong.
Feel like Christ and you will be a Christ; feel like Buddha and you will be a Buddha. It is feeling that
is the life, the strength, the vitality, without which no amount of intellectual activity can reach
God.



You have to grow from the inside out. None can teach you, none can make you spiritual. There is no
other teacher but your own soul.




It is our own mental attitude which makes the world what it is for us. Our thought make things
beautiful, our thoughts make things ugly. The whole world is in our own minds. Learn to see
things in the proper light. First, believe in this world -- that there is meaning behind everything.
Everything in the world is good, is holy and beautiful. If you see something evil, think that you are
not understanding it in the right light. throw the burden on yourselves!
